Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 January 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

While Amendment 418 seeks to create the fund, Amendments 417 and 419 would provide the immediate vehicles for justice through public interest compensation orders. These, as we have heard, would allow the court to direct payments directly to established international bodies, such as the UN Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture or the Register of Damage for Ukraine.
